A portable washing machine can be a great investment for young students who are living in a college dorm or in student housing off campus! They are easy to use, won’t take up much space, and save you money! Instead of lugging your clothes to a Laundromat and spending a lot of money to wash and dry, you can do your clothes at home with less water, less detergent, and less money. This mini portable washing machine from Merax both washes and spin-dries your clothes at the same time, so you can do laundry while you study! It can handle up to 13 pounds of clothing (8 in the washer + 5 in the dryer), and you can both wash and spin at the same time. It’s also incredibly easy to use – just hook the inlet hose up to a water source (kitchen sink, bathroom sink, or bathtub), and place the draining tube in a large bucket, sink, or bathtub!
